Jusqu’à trente ans, tu as la gueule que Dieu t’a donnée. Après, tu as la gueule que tu mérites… Francisco, comporte-toi bien ! Je sais que c’est ton anniversaire, que tu as trente ans maintenant, que c’est le carnaval et que tu t’es déguisé en cow-boy pour la fête de l’école, que tu es entouré de gosses que tu hais… Mais ce n’est pas une raison pour tirer la gueule. Contrôle-toi ! Tu ne vois pas que personne ne te supporte ? Tu te casses la figure, tu vas à l’hôpital, tu as la rubéole et personne pour veiller sur toi… Sept nains seraient bien venus, tout comme dans Blanche Neige…

In mid-summer 2011, Paulo Carneiro and set out as assistant director for a film crew working on a project on the west African coast. There he unexpectedly ended up shooting his own film, a documentary report about a sinking ship near the coast of Guinea-Bissau on which he was a passenger. The digital camera records the growing panic on the ship after it has gotten stuck in the ocean in an oppressive nighttime atmosphere. In shaky interview footage, we see passengers move from an initial apathy to nervous anxiety, and from there fluidly to a fear for their lives. The growing tension on board is reflected in the film's ever quickening tempo.

Natal 71 is the name of a record given to the soldiers of the portuguese colonies overseas for Christmas 1971. Niassa's Songbook is the title of an audiotape illegally recorded by soldiers during the war years, in Mozambique. They are memories from a country which was shut from the rest of the world, poor and ignorant, laid to sleep by a stale and primitive propaganda which tried to hide all the conflicts from us and kept us from thinking and recognising the repressive nature of the regime we lived in.

When she passed at the age of 92, her death was a surprise to me, which I was not prepared for. The cinema has the immense power of creating the illusion of life and its protection. This film is my attempt to rescue my grandma from death. It is not a documentary about my grandma but a film with my grandma. I wanted to film a ghost and then return it to the realm of the living, like Orfeu tried with Eurídice. It is a route to resurrection. It is my way of giving her immortality which I deem to be her right.»
